USDA Zone 7B

Zone 7B Planting Calendar — April 5 to November 1

Zone 7b is a highly productive zone with warm springs, hot summers, and mild autumns. The 220-day growing season allows two full cool-season cycles alongside peak summer production. Timing cool-season fall plantings carefully around August heat is the primary scheduling challenge.

Zone 7B at a glance: Last frost averages April 5 (range Mar 20–Apr 20). First fall frost averages November 1. Growing season is 210 days. Start warm-season crops indoors 6–10 weeks before last frost; transplant after April 5.
